Fact-Checking Priscilla Presley’s Age: How Old Was She When Having Lisa Marie?
Biographical timelines often get muddled in popular culture because Priscilla entered Elvis's orbit at such a young age. Priscilla was born on May 24, 1945. When her daughter arrived on February 1, 1968, at 5:01 p.m., Priscilla was roughly three months shy of her 23rd birthday.
The birth took place at Baptist Memorial Hospital Memphis, where Elvis reserved an entire floor to ensure privacy from the press packs camped outside. Lisa Marie arrived weighing 6 pounds, 15 ounces. Elvis, born on January 8, 1935, had celebrated his 33rd birthday three weeks earlier. The couple held a packed hospital press conference four days later on February 5, 1968, holding their newborn wrapped in a pale pink blanket before retreating back to Graceland.
